hi...i sent you this a few days ago:

hey...sorry i took so long...i've been out of town (visiting 
graves!)...as for my body, you don't want it and my wife has already 
laid stake on it...

as for the JonBenet photos...i have no idea if the person got 
permission from the family...in general, most of the photos on my 
pages aren't there with family permission, however, in the case where 
families have found their famous loved ones on my site, they seem 
happy about it...

my exchange with the submitter of the Ramsey photos was 'a bit odd', 
however...nothing concretely bizarre, but just some strange comments 
here and there...what do you know about the person?  who the hell is 
it? I'm not looking to get roped into a murder investigation, so just 
give me any info that won't get me subpoenaed in the future...

thanks,
jim


i realize that doesn't explicity answer your question, but i thought 
it was obvious...no, i don't have permission from them to show the 
photo of the grave, but as far as i know, i don't need their 
permission, nor would i know the first thing about tracking them down 
(or the families of over 5,000 other people listed on my site!). 
Famous graves (Princess Di, Nicole Brown Simpson, JonBenet) are 
frequently shown in all media outlets in conjunction with 
stories...i'm pretty sure they don't all get permission from the 
family...

anyway...the 'odd' things are slightly fuzzy in my head at this 
point...i just remember thinking, "there's an odd exchange"...i think 
she said she visited the grave almost daily, took her flowers, etc...
